Spectrum.select_photons_by_position

Advanced command associated with adding conditions for the detailed spectra that are extracted. This command simply asks whether one would like to construct spectra from photons that originate or last scattered from a certain regions of space.

If yes, then one will be asked to specify the regions for all extraction angles.

This option is useful for diagnostic purposes, such as differentiating between photons that read the observer from the near or far side of the disk.

Note: This option is only available in extract mode. If one attempts to select photons by position in live or die mode. The SIROCCO will warn the user and exit.
